Informations sur le fournisseur
Musée Ardouin - Bastide de Mazères
Mazères Le musée du Vieux Mazères se trouve dans un <strong>hôtel pastelier : l'Hôtel d'Ardouin, bâtiment du XVIe siècle</strong>. Ce monument classé vient de bénéficier d'une restauration complète. Il est construit en briques avec de belles fenêtres à meneaux finement ouvragées.
Le pastel, cette plante tincturiale qui a fait la fortune du Lauragais, est évoquée lors de la visite. Dans les caves voutées, une pièce est réservée à l'histoire la plus ancienne de Mazères : du mobilier néolithique aux vestiges de la prestigieuse <strong>Abbaye de Boulbonne</strong> sans oublier la nécropole mérovingienne.
La visite se termine par une salle consacrée aux expositions temporaires.
